Full TV schedule announced for 2016 Copa America Centenario

FOX Sports today announced their coverage of the historic 2016 Copa America Centenario.


FOX Sports will televise all 32 matches of what is the biggest, most prestigious men's soccer tournament hosted on American soil since the 1994 FIFA World Cup, live from 10 nationwide venues from June 3 to June 26. FS1 is scheduled to carry 21 matches, with four airing on the FOX broadcast network. FX, FOX's widely distributed general entertainment channel, is slated to televise two quarterfinal matches and the Third Place match, with four group stage games appearing on FS2. Every contest is available on recently updated FOX Sports GO and FOX Soccer 2Go mobile apps and on desktop computers via FOXSportsGO.com.


"Copa America Centenario promises to be a spectacular showcase for soccer in the United States," said FOX Sports’ David Neal.  "We expect viewers to be riveted by the most important men's soccer event on U.S. soil in 22 years. It will be a seminal moment for the sport and for soccer fans in the United States."


The Copa America Centenario, which is being contested in the United States for the first time, celebrates the tournament's first 100 years and features 16 national teams from the Americas, with Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and the United States the top-seeded teams in each group.


The U.S. Men's National Team opens the tournament Friday, June 3 on FS1 (6:30 PM PT), hosting Colombia in a highly competitive Group A match at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif.  The U.S. continues play against Costa Rica in both teams' second group stage match in prime time on Tuesday, June 7 (5:00 PM PT), live from Soldier Field in Chicago.


The Copa America is the oldest international soccer tournament in the world, and has previously been contested only in South America. The CENTENARIO edition of the tournament features CONMEBOL competing against CONCACAF nations across the United States for the first time. The competition begins with a round-robin stage featuring four groups of four teams. Group A consists of the USA, Colombia, Costa Rica and Paraguay; Group B comprises Brazil, Ecuador, Haiti and Peru; Group C contains Mexico, Uruguay, Jamaica and Venezuela; and Argentina, Chile, Panama and Bolivia round out Group D.

FOX Sports' multi-platform marketing campaign for the Copa America Centenario celebrates the global anticipation, excitement, and celebration of this world-class competition, one hundred years in the making.
